RE: java.net.BindException
It means that the port that Tomcat is trying to use is already in use by another process. You can check ports in use by using the netstat command before you try and start Tomcat, you can change the server port used by Tomcat in the conf/server.xml file. Usual suspects that occupy the port are - Older installations of Tomcat that run on startup (NT Service for instance). Other web servers (if you have already changed Tomcat to use port 80 then check for the presence of other web servers IIS or Apache for instance). Port 8080 is quite often used by many applications as a default port, Tomcat being one of them.

RE: servlet-mapping problem
Here is an example of a Servlet and URL mapping servlet servlet-nameAServlet/servlet-name servlet-classmy.package.AServlet/servlet-class /servlet servlet-mapping url-pattern*.ase/url-pattern servlet-nameAServlet/servlet-name /servlet-mapping The servlet mapping associates the name AServlet to the servlet my.package.AServlet. The URL mapping means that ANY request that ends in .ase will be passed to the associated servlet via the servlet mapping If you want a specific filename, specific.ase would mean any request for the file specific.ase would be routed to the my.package.AServlet servlet. I am not certain if you can specify a complete path (ie /some/path/specific.ase) as I have never needed such specificity however get the first example working and then try the more specific versions. I have only ever used the first type of mapping scheme in practice, I know that it works.

This was actually the default setting for the ROOT application anyway. NOTE: If you are developing your JSP's on a machine that is remote from the actual Tomcat server then you may well be suffering from timestamp problems. Tomcat relies on the Last Changed timestamp of the files in question in order to detect that a file has been changed and so trigger compilation of the JSP file. Copying of files from one machine to another carries the Last Changed timestamp with it, if your development machine's clock is behind the tomcat server's clock then Tomcat may not be able to pick up the changes. Make sure that the times on both machines match, clock synchronisation is the best way of ensuring this. If you are not working on a Unix/Linux platform, find or write your own version of touch which will update the last updated timestamps (this would need to be run on the Tomcat server though). I recommend the former solution.

RE: servlet hang
I had problems like this in a more conventional Server/Client (Applet) scenario. I am not entirely certain what causes the ObjectInputStream to think it is at EOF and didn't really have the time to find a 'workaround'. It was actually easier to create an RMI setup for what I wanted to acheive. Sounds daunting, it isn't really. Needed the Java plugin in the browser to make it work (not a problem for me, these are limited distribution, read Intranet/Mobile client, applets. I initially wanted to do all my communication via a servlet using a stateful server/client setup however http based communication is NOT at all well suited for such scenarios. If you need your servlet to perform other duties, eg statistics etc, then it can also use RMI, means RMI is being used as a bridge. I found that I was able to do away with the servlet altogether in the end.

RE: nt service + nt service
Are you using either jdbc-odbc bridge or a JDBC driver that needs an ODBC entry? If so, then you will need to create a System DSN instead of a User DSN (assuming you haven't already). System DSN's are available to system services, User DSN's are not. That would explain the reason why it runs as a user process with startup.bat but not as an NT service. Could be something else mind.

RE: Tomcat URL Problem
Hi Ross, if you want to use + signs in a URL (inadvisable really) then you will need to encode them such that the + sign is converted to its %XXX equivalent. The + sign is used to denote spaces in GET method URL's so it would appear that Tomcat is doing the right thing. Use the - sign instead, or the _ (underscore) sign. Andy Bailey PS not being totally conversant with the relevant RFC's I am not 100% certain of the above explanation however I personally avoid + signs in URL's like the plague. -Original Message- From: Ross Allard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2001 2:45 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Tomcat URL Problem We have a tool which generates a website which, as usual, consists of a directory tree of html and other files. Our file naming convention makes heavy use of the plus sign, +, as a separator. E.g. file0+1, file1+2. This apparently causes an error when deployed on Tomcat. The plus sign seems to be mapped to space resulting in a 404 error. It is our understanding that our naming scheme is fully w3c compliant and we've had no problems with other html servers.

Suddenly my tomcat installation is broken
Hi, I have had Tomcat 3.2.1 running on my dev system with no problems for months now. For some reason it will no longer start. I get the following... Exception in thread main java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name org.apache.tomcat.resources.LocalStrings, locale en_US at java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(ResourceBundle.ja va:712) at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:683) at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(ResourceBundle.java:546) at org.apache.tomcat.util.StringManager.init(StringManager.java:115) at org.apache.tomcat.util.StringManager.getManager(StringManager.java:260) at org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat.clinit(Tomcat.java:24) Now I have reinstalled from my original installation, same problem. My classpath has not changed I checked that against backups (it was running great until I went to restart it this morning). There are LocalString properties files as base, for _en and _es which is as expected in the webserver.jar. The classpath set for tomcat via startup.bat contains an %TOMCAT_HOME%\lib\webserver.jar, TOMCAT_HOME is set correctly (I even set it up explicitly as a system var). I do not believe this is an OS issue (this is on win2k Advanced Server). Rebooting my system has had no effect either. Any help for this mysterious problem would be greatly appreciated. Andy Bailey
